Currently our street (N16) is plagued by a group of fearless thieving youngsters and bikes are disappearing daily. Last night i saw some of them removing a Supreme s/s (black with red crank and bars) but they left this one and secured it with a chain of their own - so they'll be back for it soon i guess. If its yours or you know who it might belong to let me know and I'll gladly put every lock i have on it
Its a Brother frame - supplied at some point by Barclays in Dalston

Just to update to some posts upthread... A friend found his bike on Gumtree, I checked in on here the latest advice. He contacted police and was assigned an officer, unbelievably. However, they advised he wait a day to arrange to meet, I'm not entirely sure why. By then the bike was sold or pulled out of suspicion.
Part of what the plod said was that it's bdbdbhard to prove the guy selling the bike actually stole it. I don't know. It's a bummer. I'm away in Germany so couldn't help out simply going down and trying our luck retrieving it.
Thanks @PhilDAS and @Rhobbs for replies.
Friend now wishes he had simply bought it back, so I add this to the litany of sad thoughts that make up the bulk of this thread.
